  • Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 – Exporting to quicktime audio sync problem

    Posted by Charles Westfall on May 11, 2008 at 3:12 pm

    I am using Adobe Premiere Pro to edit 30 second commercials. Every time I export a thirty second clip to quicktime, the audio loses sync in the middle of the clip. The audio jumps ahead of the video about half a second and then is back in sync at the end of the clip. I have tried changing the fps settings to 23.976, which is the native settings for the footage, and that didn’t work either. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening?

    What are the clip settings, project settings and the export settings including FPS, frame sizes, Audio Khz, Codec (Co.mpressor + Dec.ompressor) = Codec. It sounds like (ha I didn’t mean that) there is a mismatch in the fps, codec might be making file too big so picture lags while audio keeps cruising.

    How many editors does it take to change a light bulb?

    I believe I fixed the problem. It seems that it was one scene that had the problem. I deleted the audio for that scene and reinstalled it, and it worked. I also noticed that it lost 3 frames on the timeline at one point. That was strange. The frame count ended at 29 frames and the next started at 3 frames. Frames 30, 1 and 2 were missing. Somehow, Premiere played it fine in the timeline, but quicktime and Windows Media player couldn’t handle it. I just shifted the whole group of shots past that point in the timeline and exported it again, and it worked. Thanks for the response.
